Alan, it seems that my plan has not worked out. im left with a zetech engine and only 7000 pounds to play with as we speak. given the abouve facts and that i desire this engine to be located in my capri, with 300 horse at my disposal what is the cheapest price you could install the engine, gear box, turbo, emerald stystem and associated pipe work to get the engine to 300 bhp, as far as the engine compression is concered will a decompression plate be chaeper than replacing pistons.

Question:
Hi Alan, I have a 2005 widetrack STI which I\'m looking to get the cambelt replaced on. I would normally get the parts from yourself but I have some credit on an e-voucher that expires at the end of the month, So it makes sense to use that. What would be the approximate cost to have a timing belt kit and waterpump fitted? Also, as the cars on 99k would it benefit anything else, such as the oil pump being replaced at the same time, and are you able to supply the other parts if you find it needs them? Many thanks Ryan

Answer:
Hi Ryan - A can belt change with tensioners is £150 inc vat, allow another £30 to replace the water pump as well. We'd only look at the oil pump if it's showing signs of leaking. We can supply any parts you need, we use an uprated blade water pump, costs £63.60.

Iv been having a few problems with my 06 Golf GTI (197bhp). The engine management light is on and I believe I may have lost boost pressure. I have just bought the GFB DV+ kit in the hope that is the issue (known weak point) Is it possible to bring it down friday to have a once over and have that installed? Many thanks

Answer:
Hi Robbie, yes that's fine. We open at 9.00..

Question:
About 5 years ago I brought a pair of Boss 429 heads in for pressure testing. Unfortunately they were beyond hope. I have finally restored the Mustang the engine is in along with having the engine completely rebuilt with new TM heads. The engine is running a quickfuel custom 850cfm carb. The engine builder did say I may need to fine tune the carb and maybe rejet to European fuel. The car is running but the carb needs setting up properly. Possibly timing as well etc. It has a Pertronix ignition system fitted. Roughly how much would it cost to have a tune up for general road use please.. Thanks Spence ]

Answer:
Hi Spence. Yes, I remember those heads! Hard to say what it would cost for sure of course. I may need jets or other parts. If you wish, I can arrange to have it in for a check out session and go from there? £50 plus vat..

Question:
Hi, just purchased an 2005 (55) sti, dccd widetrack model. It has a full de-cat miltek system and walbro fuel pump but hasn\'t been mapped yet. How much would a map cost and what gains could be expected. Also is there anything that can be added to the Ecu ie launch control, anti lag or would I need a different Ecu.
Many thanks in advance Dan.

Answer:
Hi Dan - We can map using a speed density set up (mafless) that gives you options on launch, flat shift and "pops and bangs" options. £400 plus vat.. We'd expect to be seeing around 330 bhp with strong torque.
